Either this year was a freakish year for really good D-linemen, or the current D-linemen in the NFL are not thought of highly............

 

It is the former. This is a generational defensive line class. 29 of my top 100 were Dline.

I actually think they did a pretty good job. Ferrell is a really good football player (though Oliver is better) and Abram is a very good pick. I am more mixed on Jacobs. 

 

Ferrell is really good but not at 4 with those who were still there.  

 

Josh Jacobs is a good RB, but not a game breaker.  I know breakaway speed isn’t the end all be all, but if I’m drafting a RB in the 1st, they better be AP or Gurley type runners.  

 

Abram, I don’t know much about, but it seems DB’s in this draft range usually play out pretty well so I’m sure that’s a decent pick.

Noah Fant! Apparently Iowa had 2 superstar TEs last year. You could tell cause they were so good and the position is so valuable that Iowa must have been one of the best teams in the country.

 

So...is your point that since IA is great at scouting and getting Tight Ends NFL-ready, that they should be winning more games, or are you upset with the fact that they produced two Tight Ends that went in the first round?

Rams said leading up to the draft that they were open to moving out of the 1st. If the Bills want to come up, 31 is the spot now.

 

What do you give up there?  One of our fourths?

There's 50 people at the draft now.

 

End the hillbilly madness and bring it back to NYC already.  And leave it there.

 

I hope youn are not serious. 

 

On so many levels....

I think he's a bad pick. More flash than substance, but saying that NFL evaluators don't think he's good because he's not selected in the 1st round is silly.

 

I didn't say that. I said fans like him more than evaluators. I think his highlights look great, which is what fans see. But when you really get into his tape it doesn't stand up to the same scrutiny. Inconsistent production and inconsistent effort.

Do the Seahwaks waste everyones time and make their pick then sit down and wait 15 minutes more to make their 2nd pick, just because?

 

Another new rule....if you have back to back picks you only get one time slot?   

 

Maybe they should just make them do it on Yahoo and give them 90 seconds to pick.  :lol:

Words cannot describe how much I hate that term.

 

I know you're not a hockey guy, but I've heard that more than often enough to describe two guys that are anything but.

 

 

I'm not. I did use it for the 2017 DB class though... and so far looks pretty darn good.

but you're quoting a post that is a reply responding to that very statement which indicates you agree with it.

Looked like it was pouring after the last commercial break.

 

 

It's crazy.  Bring it back where it belongs.  Let those people watch it on satellite from their mobile homes and double wides.
